notes for new collaborators

In order to work on this project on one of the LL machines, there are a couple of things you'll have to do.

1. clone the repository by entering the following command in your Development folder: git clone https://github.com/ll-dev-team/slackinvideo.git
2. change directories to get in there: cd slackinvideo
3. install all the dependencies: npm install
4. create a .env file with all the secret stuff (api tokens, etc.)--can't quote all that here, obviously, but get the file started by typing nano .env or atom .env. If you don't create and populate this file, everything will fail, because all the references to stuff like process.env.SLACK_TOKEN will just not work.
5. type npm start and you should be all ready to go. Go to http://localhost:3000/ in your browser of choice to test stuff out.
